#19. A pioneer journalist, Nellie Bly’s exploit included circling the globe faster than Jule Verne’s fictional Phileas Fogg.
A. A pioneer journalist, Nellie Bly’s exploit included B. The exploits of Nellie Bly, a pioneer journalist, included C. Nellie Bly was a pioneer journalist including in her exploits the D. Included in the pioneer journalist Nellie Bly’s exploit are E. The pioneer journalist’s exploits of Nellie Bly, included
这道题选B是没有什么问题的,只是对OG中D的解释有些疑问。 OG中的解释是: "Since the event clearly happend in the past, the tense of verb 'are' is wrong; piling too many descriptive words for...makes the phrase unwieldy and awkward." Ok, then. 我的问题主要是关于前半部分的解释。我排除D选项,是先看到一个Included in....are...的一个倒装结构,之后去看are后面跟着的主语"circling the globe faster than...",显然是一个单数的成分。因此,根据主谓一致将are改成了is. 而根据OG中的解释,are是因为时态问题才排除的!而且说是因为这个exploit是clearly发生在过去,所以不能用一般现在时。可是我很想知道这样一种表达, Making the electric light bulb is included in Edison's top ten inventions.(虽然这个表达也有点奇怪)是不是在时态上也有问题呢?就是因为Making是发生在过去的,所以这边一定是要用"was"? 希望有走过的CDer们能够指点一下,谢谢了哈!
